PARISC: fix panic on prefetch(NULL) on PA7300LC
commit b3cb8674811d1851bbf1486a73d62b90c119b994 upstream.
Due to an errata, the PA7300LC generates a TLB miss interruption even on the
prefetch instruction. This means that prefetch(NULL), which is supposed to be
a nop on linux actually generates a NULL deref fault. Fix this by testing the
address of prefetch against NULL before doing the prefetch.
